Don't have much context for their Coachella sets, but I've always found Kaytra boring at fests and Mag Bay is an extremely fun show that you should absolutely see.
Barring any major schedule changes, these are the conflicts I’m looking at:
Comet/DOMi & JD Beck Overmono/Magdalena Bay Becky G/Tobe Nwigwe/Wet Leg Blondie/Kaytranada
Kenny/Dinner Party/Ethel Cain Joy Crookes/El Michels Affair/TSHA
Any advice from an attendee/stream viewer this past weekend would be great appreciated.
Cross-posting here. Any advice would be great.
I live streamed a lot of the later sets in the day this year.
I didn't see Overmono or Tobe because that is who I am planning on seeing next week. I heard rave reviews for both shows and it just made me more stoked to watch them. I watched Wet Leg and I thought it was fun, they don't do it as much for me as some others but for big fans it looked like a packed and great show.
I was 100% set on Dinner Party but after watching Kenny Beats, that looked just too fucking fun to pass up. Ethel Cain, who I knew nothing about, was mesmerizing and a beautiful show. So was Dinner Party. There really is no bad choice here, which of course makes it an impossible choice lol.
Kaytranada has a rep for being a sleepy show but I thought at Coachella it looked really fun. Blondie, I will respect Debbie Harry to death and she's so fucking rad for getting out there at her age, but I was a little let down by the livestream.

Tough call between The Comet is Coming and Domi & JD Beck. Both of the 15/20 minute clips they showed were some of my favorite things I got to see. They are starkly different variations on jazz with one being aggressive and one being more ethereal. TCIC got top 3 both times I saw them (Bonnaroo and ACL). And I can’t wait to see them again. But the drum and keyboard compositions were really good. And they are so young that you figure the duo is probably a temporary situation for both of them unless they continue to hit it off musically and continue playing together or maybe keep it as a side project. I would probably see Domi & JD Beck mostly because I haven’t. It’s not a vote on quality as that’s a tie.
I would also pick Dinner Party over Kenny Beats every time. Kenny was playing songs. People on this stream thread were loving some of the selections and mashes. But it wasn’t like his YouTube show where he creates on the fly or collaborates with other people. It was more of a deejay performance which I mostly wouldn’t have paid to go see someone do (in fairness he may have ties to everything he played. I wouldn’t have any idea). I didn’t see any of Ethel Cain so I can’t speak on that. Dinner Party started off kind of avant-jazz or whatever. Glasper, Washington and Martin were all featured and played off each other. Their accompanying live band was great. The second half of the show went in a hiphop direction where they gave 9th Wonder (their dj) a couple minutes to mix and spin. It was on a higher level imho.
Did someone ask for vaguely correct facts done with 10 mins on Google? Short answer she seems to be oldest at 77.
Some others: Sir Paul 68, Sly Stone 68, Willie Nelson 75, Lemmy 70, Bobby Womack 66, Lou Reed 72 if he didnt cancel, Lee Scratch Perry 75, Bryan Ferry 70, Danny Elfman 68 and David Byrne 65.
I think she also beats all the Desert Trip and Power Trips acts. Stagecoach had acts like Earl Scruggs at 85 and Ray Price 84. Also impressive was Clint Eastwood attending with his daughters in his early 80s.
The aspect that dropped my jaw about the Blondie set was Backfired which might be the global live debut from her 1981 solo album.
You left out the oldest: Calypso Rose
Always a first time to learn about new artists I guess.
I didn't see Tobe's set at Coach. If it's like Roo last year, I'd lean that over Wet Leg.
Blondie over Kay - just because Debbie Harry's 77 and Kaytranada pops up at more fests in general.
Can't speak on Dinner Party, but Ethel >>>>> Kenny
You have to get inside of Sonora first for Ethel. You can split Tobe and Wet Leg since they always play "the song" last and the tents are next to each other.
We need 8 channels so theres an Octobox like Red Zone. Would be really cool to have all the channels going and you can zoom in on one and listen in and switch on the fly.
Do Week 2 broadcasts usually duplicate Week 1? Missed Saturday and Sunday. Few sets I’d love to check out.
It's a whole different thing they're doing this year. We'll know once they release the stream schedule. Previous years that had Week 2 content were either curated, sets they showed you that weren't live or VR/360 type feeds, extended interviews, etc.
Did any of these shows get uploaded anywhere? Wasn’t able to watch much over the weekend.
Yeah, you'd have to scan back through the weekend, but someone was getting many of the rips and has them available. Alternatively, you can go to Coachella's page on YouTube. They did upload a couple of sets and lots of individual songs or pieces parts of shows last I checked.

told one of my friends who missed knocked loose’s set “don’t worry! you can catch weekend 2’s stream!” before realizing they won’t be broadcasting the Sonora stage this weekend 🙃

I just went through like 35 pages and didn’t see anything specifically lol, wanna DM a brother? Really itching to watch some of these sets.
Looks pretty much the same as last week except for the stage substitution. I saw most everything I wanted to see, but I'll probably tune in for a couple of shows this weekend.
